q-tip Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 I was asking about the mondo butt plug that datrod made but good stuff from you as usual mike! Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I was asking about the mondo butt plug that datrod made but good stuff from you as usual mike! If you were asking me, Then yes CNC. The fixture we made for the holes was pretty badass. I'll take some pic's tomorrow and post them up. For that part a 5 axis machine would be just about right. Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 The dildo is 3 different pieces. The top piece with the small holes in it is 316 SS. The dull portion is just mild steel, And the large part is 17-4 SS. 1 Quote Link to comment
Josh K. Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 mmmm 5 axis..... I'm flying to Toronto next week to inspect a possible third 5-axis machine for our shop :) I really enjoy programming them. I've found the longer I'm in this biz the more complex things need to be to keep my attention..... ;) 1 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I never see anything complex like that at my shop, we do castings on manual machines, you have more 5 axis machines that we have CNC machines :lol: Quote Link to comment
cl72wagon Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Those look like fun. I have not been doing much of the really big stuff, but here are some mid size parts we have been running. They are about 8 feet long and we run the top,both ends and front in one set up. Second set up is the bottom. Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 8ft, you parts are so small :lol: I don't do too many complex things but they are big from time to time, just got done with a part that has a 10' diameter and weighs 24tons 1 Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I never get to make cool shit like this. I just don't have the equipment for it. But dang that's a cool looking part. Quote Link to comment
datrod Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 How about some wheel adapters for your Datsun Z car. Or some water pump pulleys for your favorite Z car. 2 Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The tooling fixture we build for the dildo looking part. Every one of the notches on the bottom and the flats on the side allowed us to put the angled holes down thru the part. We put a dowell pin under the fixture to change the angle. 2 Quote Link to comment

I used to have to mill these huge rock crusher castings. 5000-8000lbs castings. I much prefer a part that i can palm VS get squished by. 1 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 I honestly hate doing the big stuff, its too much work to set up 1 Quote Link to comment

Uber Deaf One Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 How have I not seen this thread yet? :O I started working at a machine shop a couple months ago... picked things up pretty quick, machining is awesome. I can't post pics of stuff I've been working on but I have a few personal projects I plan on starting soon, I'll be sure to add to this thread when I can. Quote Link to comment
